laughing cow. reinvent snacking. good morning, america. get ready for a winter weather double whammy. hot on the heels of one storm that caused a major digout and several dramatic spinouts, now comes a potential pounding. more than a foot of snow. expected for millions. who is in the path this time? for this one-two punch. scare in the air. twin twitter bomb threats. fighter jets scrambled for the emergency landing, terrifying passengers. >> you had to set down the bag and have it checked by a bomb-sniffing dog. >> the tweet causing a huge scare at one of america's busiest airports. deflategate defense. patriots' coach bill belichick tries to play science teacher to describe away the underinflated footballs. >> climatic conditions.

atmosphering conditions. ekequilibrium states. >> did the explanation make any sense? and billion-dollar burger. shake shack, the so-called gourmet burger chain, ready to go public with a giant ipo. >> shake shack's amazing. >> ready to "shake up" the fast food world. in a positive way. that's what i -- sorry, we're arguing about burgers. we'll talk about that later. >> big burger debate. we want to get straight to our top story this morning. a major winter storm charging across america right now. millions in the northeast directly in the cross-hairs. >> look at that map. everyone in the giant red zone getting pummeled by snow. some up to two feet. rob marciano tracking it all. for us this morning. good morning, rob. >> this is on the heels of the storm that came through just

yesterday, which, for this year was a big storm. let's recap that and we'll slide right into what's going to happen over the next 24 to 48 hours. a lot of road problems. the time-lapse video across the lower hudson valley. in poughkeepsie new york ewe see it quickly pile up there. five to eight inches, many spots. problems on the highways across eastern massachusetts. where we really saw the snow piling up yesterday. jackknifed trailers. flipping over at times with traffic just backing up for miles. all right. these are the latest advisories now. across the northeast. winter weather advisories. winter storm watches for this entire swath of the northeast. that orange that you see there, those are blizzard watches. haven't seen those posted much this year across the northeast. this is what we're watching. as these watches become evident, with this storm, that's fast-moving storm. doesn't have a lot of moisture. now moving across chicago. by the time it gets to the east coast, develops into a more intense storm. by 5:00 a.m. on tuesday, all the

snow from d.c. back through boston. and the winds will intensify as well. that's where the blizzard conditions will pick up. eastern long island through parts of eastern massachusetts. tuesday at 11:00 p.m., most of this will be gone. but by that time new york to boston we could see well over a foot of snow in spots. so this could very well be a crippling weather event. we'll talk more about it coming up. >> we want to make clear that rob and ginger and the full weather team will be covering the story every step of the way. we move on to one of america's busiest airports partially paralyzed. twitter bomb threats sent fighter jets scrambling. and steve osunsami is on the ground at hartsfield-jackson airport. steve, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, dan. for passengers who, on these two in-bound affected flights, this was a nuisance. for the thousands of passengers here at the airport whose flights were delayed, a major headache. blame it on social media. nearly 300 passengers on two

flights forced off their planes. away from the terminal. the bomb squad and fbi searching their things while they waited there for hours. >> we walked off the plane. you had to set down your bag. visit sniffed by a bomb-sniffing dog. >> reporter: it was all caused by an alarming series of messages on twitter that frightened the faa and nearly shut down one of the nation's busyiest airports. someone hiding behind the handle king zortic sent these threats. i have a bomb on one of your planes, but i forgot which one when i left the airport. can you help me find it? it was smuggled through one of the back entrances. officials tell abc news, the military and the airline were forced to take it seriously. worried the person was targeting inbound delta flight 1156 from portland. and southwest 2492 from milwaukee. >> the problem with bomb threats through twitter and other forms of social media is it's easy to be anonymous.

>> reporter: the government scrambled twin f-16 fighters and the planes landed safely. authorities serging the plane found nothing. >> no signs of any explosives. >> it's uncomfortable sitting on the tarmac for two hours. >> reporter: another example of an anonymous tweet causing real-world chaos. in april, dutch police arrested a teen in the netherlands after she sent a fake threat on twitter to american airlines. this morning, the fbi is on the case, trying to find the owner of this twitter handle. twitter tells us that authorities may need a court order for more information. paula? >> tense moments in the air. steve osunsami, thank you very much. now to the new developments in the deflate-gate scandal. with super bowl sunday just one week from today. the patriots coach calling an impromptu, bizarre press conference, sounding more scientist than coach. linzie janis is here to break it down. good morning, linzie. >> reporter: good morning, paula. bill belichick says he spent the last week conducting an internal review of his team's process of

breaking in their footballs. he gave several potential reasons why they may have become deflated. this morning, some now asking, was he trying to blind us with science? the morning, patriots head coach bill belichick confident his team didn't break any rules. >> the organization followed every rule to the letter. >> reporter: in a surprise news conference saturday afternoon, belichick finally ready to explain how he thinks 11 of 12 patriots footballs got deflated in last sunday's game against the colts. >> touchdown! >> climatic conditions. air pressure. equilibrium state. atmospheric conditions. >> reporter: sounding more high school science teacher than football coach -- >> the preparation of the ball caused the ball to, i would say be artificially high in psi. >> reporter: -- belichick talking about how rubbing footballs to break in the leather affects their air

pressure once the team takes the field. >> it reached its equilibrium at some point later on, an hour, two hours. that level was below what was set in this climatic condition. >> reporter: belichick's dissertation earning him a new nickname. bill belichick, the science guy. we asked the real science guy, bill nye, what he thought. >> i'm not too worried about coach belichick competing with me. what he said didn't make any sense. >> reporter: and nye says, eke equilibrium or not, the explanation falls flat. >> rubbing the football, i don't think you can change the pressure. to really change the pressure, you need one of these. the inflation needle. >> reporter: our science expert admitting he left out one crucial bit of data. >> i cannot help but say, go seahawks. >> reporter: belichick saying he's also moving on. >> this is the end of this subject for me for a long time. >> reporter: while saying he

understands its importance, belichick saying he's embarrassed about the amount of time he's put into deflategate relative to preparing for the super bowl next weekend. paula paula? >> great get by the science guy saying that falls flat. for more let's bring in espn analyst and former nfl quarterback jesse palmer. bill belichick had exonerated the patriots. saying the footballs naturally deflated. a result of atmosphering conditions. even though the colts footballs didn't. did he hurt himself or help? >> he didn't help himself. he did educate himself on footballs. that was a 19-minute symposium on footballs. that was way over my head. the biggest key to me, two hours and 15 minutes before the game, the referees have both sets of footballs in the locker room. and they set the psi looefl what we assume was an equal level. at kickoff, 11 of the 12 for the patriots were less. something happened in that time window.

that's something bill belichick can't explain. that's something right now nobody can explain. >> the nfl considering everything that's happened this season, has to get this right. but it's going to be a distraction heading into super bowl week. can you think of why this is taking so long? >> the patriots have been accused in the past of using deflated footballs. maybe that's why the nfl is looking into past games and seeing if they can find more evidence. i don't know how you prove them wrong? you need definitive evidence. bill belichick should have been in the film room game-planning. where he had to learn about footballs. i think that's why he was so embarrassed in that press conference. >> i have to be honest, this didn't affect the outcome of the game at all. >> not at all. >> it just raises the questions of playing by the rules. would this still be a story if it weren't the patriots?

>> no, i don't think so. this is the patriots. they're team people love to hate. they have a hall of fame quarterback. a hall of fame coach. this is a team people look at as potential cheaters. it's not just deflategate. in 2007, they were accused and found guilty of stealing the new york jets' signals. bill belichick was fined a half a million dollars for that. and the patriots lost draft picks. they are a sexy team. that's why it's a big story. >> as always, jesse palmer, expert analysis. get back to the science lab. >> i'm from boston. i love to love them. just for the record. >> of course you do. >> we appreciate you -- >> a little bit of boston love this morning. >> we appreciate you calling them a sexy team. that's how we think of them as well. >> bringing sexy back. we have to switch gears in a very, very serious way. we're going to talk about isis striking again. in a gruesome new video, the terror group claims to have executed one of its japanese hostages. now they're making a new demand. and abc's chief investigative

correspondent brian ross is on the story this morning. brian, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, dan. once again, isis has the world watching and waiting. it's murdered 1 of its 2 japanese hostages. now instead of a ransom it wants a prisoner swap to spare the life of the other japanese hostage. this morning, his family and government are desperate. to save the life of japanese television journalist kenji goto. isis posed this picture. forced to hold what appears to be the head of his beheaded cell mate. >> they are being fair. they no longer want money. so -- you don't need to worry about funding terrorists. >> reporter: in japan, the prime minister called the video an outrageous and unforgivable act. and goto's mother told reporters her son sounded extremely nervous.

and she added, this is no time to be optimistic. >> we're going to work closely with the japanese and the europeans. this is a team effort to find these individuals. >> reporter: the prisoner isis is demanding be freed, sajida rishawi, a failed suicide bomber is on death row in jordan. whom islamist groups have tried several times before, and failed, to free. she was part of an attack on a jordanian hotel ten years ago that killed at least 60 people attending a wedding. u.s. intelligence agents are working closely with the japanese. looking for any clue in the videos. as to where they were produced or where they were posted. at least one u.s. citizen is being held, a 26-year-old female humanitarian worker. and u.s. officials have clearly said that even if they have just a whiff of actionable intelligence, it could lead to another special forces rescue raid. >> anxious time for those families. brian, thank you. we're going to move on to what they're calling the unofficial start of the 2016 race for the white house. it was a gop beauty pageant in iowa.

and hillary clinton. i don't think you would be surprised by that. >> two people that riled up the audience not surprisingly donald trump and sarah palin. let's play a snippet of what sarah palin had to say. >> thing like that. it must change. things must change for our government. look at it. it's not too big to fail. it's too big to succeed. it's too big to succeed. >> so there's sarah palin. donald trump had equally colorful things to say. in your view, is either a serious presidential candidate? >> i don't think so. though sarah palin said she was seriously looking at it. >> so did trump. >> but trump's done this every four years. >> 1988 1992. >> you have to admire the guy for going back to the same well time and time and time again. we all bite at it. i don't think he's going to run.
